met up with visiting friends in the islands last weekend. we stayed on the island of Lipari. rented a boat one day and sailed around Salina, Lipari, and Volcano. i now understand why this entire area is on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. it's such a beautiful place! the color of the sea is almost unreal...snorkeling around the island was another experience all together. we took a mud bath in Volcano, in the sulfuric mud and the natural hot springs...think i have to now throw away my bathing suit.the food: amazing. the seafood especially, was the freshest i’ve ever tasted...ida refused to eat one of the things, limpets, she ordered for me and john, and after eating 5 or 6, i was ready for the next one when i saw an undulating motion on my plate...“it’s moving! is this thing alive?!?!” needless to say i stopped eating...but i have to admit, i quite liked them, just had a hard time eating something that was still moving.
